  • I feel like it’s boomer fuel, this AI. What actual use does it have, like it’s supposed to be changing my life, putting me out of a job, turning all of my hard work into nothing. Robots giving me handjobs and all of that. None of this is happening.

    No, the only thing that is happening, is a bunch of late 50s and 60 year old executives running around at work like a bunch of robots. AI AI AI AI AI AI Beep Beep Boop AI AI AI AI AI AI


  • I just actually finished this book, not 10 minutes ago. My overarching TL;DR summary of it, in one sentence is this: For being an international lawyer, she’s pretty naive.

    We all know Facebook is a morally bankrupt circus, that’s been well known for quite some time. The Social Network taught us that he’s a pretty selfish terrible person (plus a weirdo). That movie came out in like, what, 2010? If she thought she could single handedly change this, which she pretty clearly does, the conclusions already written that it’ll be a leopards ate my face moment.

    I’m glad she shared her story, no it’s not fair, and I hope it’s brought her some peace. But I have to be honest that it was a slog getting through that book.












  • They are going down the toilet, because they are distracted. Look, they were the most reliable EV, and they were at the forefront of the EV revolution. They built the most robust and reliable charging network (one of the key reasons we went with Tesla over Hyundai or other options), and flipped the automotive retail marketplace on their head.

    But they also unfortunately have their hard work and progress overshadowed by a complete narcissistic manchild of a CEO. Who somehow controls the company with only 17% of shares held, who has a corrupt and compromised board on his side that will cater to his every little whims. A CEO who gets distracted, first with this Cybertruck nonsense, then X, then SpaceX, who then derails all innovation and future development with everyone focused on this autopilot distraction, and now all this. If I was a shareholder, I’d be furious. As a customer, I’m not sure I can rely on them anymore (could I ever?), so my future purchasing decisions will be made with that in mind.

    What goes up, must come down I guess. Sigh.




  • So I had a 2070 in mine, and updated last year to a 4070ti. I’m not going to lie to you here, the difference hasn’t been earth shattering. I mean it’s obviously better, but if you are gaming in 1080p, you should still be good for a bit yet. Games are released so horrendously optimized anymore, it doesn’t matter if you have your own personal nuclear power plant powering a video card the size of Texas, it’s still going to suck.
